3X WARNING: I highly recommend not fiddling with any of these settings for your game (don't ask why I know this). The excellent modders who set those settings did so for a very, very, very good reason....
Anyway, for NYGM at least, both aspect and speed are HUGE in staying unnoticed. I've been able to get crazy (~1000m close to escorts even while they're alerted to me (torpedo impacts) minding my speed and staying bow/stern on. The sea state seems to be very much secondary to speed and aspect, though. A lot of my failed convoy approaches happen in rough seas, not calm, because I think I can go faster.

Thank you Tupolev, very nice remarks!
I had already understand that the values of the Enemy Surface factor/Enemy Speed Factor are a very sensistive area and is better to not touch them at all, that these values are setted how they are for a load of good reasons.
It is good for me to know that in NYGM the aspect/speed factor is so important. Thanks for sharing that.
